Ducati Single Racing: Assen 2012
http://ducatisingleracing.blogspot.com/2012/06/assen-2012.html
Sunday, 3 June 2012. This was Steelcraft's 4th visit to the famous Dutch circuit. And this time we were joined by BHR regular Rod Graham who was making his first appearance. Rod making final preparations. As usual there were plenty of Ducati and other italian singles around the paddock. Even the odd road bike. Here are some video clips from the race. After this Andy was due out almost immediately in the NK classics race. There was a bit of a panic when we found his gear lever was broken. We quick...Bante...

Ducati Single Racing: November 2011
http://ducatisingleracing.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 22 November 2011. I'm really pleased that someone has answered our plea for photos and information about your Ducati singles. We received an email from Michael in Finland about his 350 Spaggiari replica. My self racing (parade ) a 350 “Bruno Spaggiari Replica” – at 35 bhp on the back wheel with the stop at 8000 rpm we are happy. Needed some porting and a megacycle cam and a Italian piston. I'd like to hear it with the current exhaust system. Nice work Michael and thanks for the photo. The main c...

Ducati Single Racing: Race of the Year Snetterton CRMC
http://ducatisingleracing.blogspot.com/2011/10/race-of-year-snetterton-crmc.html
Thursday, 13 October 2011. Race of the Year Snetterton CRMC. Our only visit to the Classic Racing Motorcycle Club this year was their final round, the Race of the Year meeting, at Snetterton and Andy was the only Steelcraft rider competing. Some random clips from Snetterton. Some people believe in omens, but Andy leaving his tool box at home, despite having everything else but the kitchen sink in the van didn't worry us. Another nice example a shame it's only paraded. Again not good as we had recorded no...

Ducati Single Racing: February 2012
http://ducatisingleracing.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, 12 February 2012. A rather special 500 from the Netherlands. Eldert kindly sent me some photos and information about his 496cc Ducati. After receiving this photo I asked for some further info and this is the reply from Eldert:. The close ratio gearbox we bought kept on breaking gears ( mostly 4th ) so I had new gears made locally in a bigger module and made the gears wider where possible.". Comparison of 4th gears.

Ducati Single Racing: 450 Race Project
http://ducatisingleracing.blogspot.com/2011/11/450-race-project.html
Monday, 14 November 2011. After a good year racing the 250's Andy had one of his brilliant ideas, why not a 450 for 2012? If it can be ridden like the 250's and produce half decent horsepower, it should be a match for most full 500's, being a lot lighter than a standard Manx or G50 Matchless. Well that's the theory. First problem, find a bike. After much hunting around Andy found at least the basis for the racer. 65279;. NCR 450 currently for sale in Japan at 4,800,000 Yen (£39,000). 65279;A...

Ducati Single Racing: On board video
http://ducatisingleracing.blogspot.com/2011/10/on-board-video.html
Friday, 7 October 2011. This blog may be about racing bikes from the past, but that doesn't stop us from using new technology. After trying a cheap on board camera this year (£15 - yes that cheap) which gave us some passable results, (see Lydden and Gedinne posts, 2011) Stu has invested in something a little more upmarket. Drift 170 Stealth action camera (OK, it's a silly macho name). As you can see, the camera can be clipped to the mount very quickly. And below fear facing, mounted on the seat hump.

Ducati Single Racing
http://ducatisingleracing.blogspot.com/2012/04/bhr-mallory-park-2012-bhr-held-their.html
Sunday, 29 April 2012. BHR Mallory park 2012. BHR held their traditional opener at Mallory in sunny but cold conditions. Andy's bike wasn't ready but Stu was optimistic after a good test session, apart from the crash, a month earlier. However, as is so often the case, a good test day didn't guarantee a good race day. Stu and Ian Scutt. Due to the gearbox problem, that was the end of racing for the day for Stu. Not the best start to a season but the gearbox has now been rebuilt with some new bits. BHR Mal...
